Q:I received 63J at meps and it is a chemical equipment repair job can someone give me the details on this job and what i would do if mobilized. thank you.

Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairer (63J) The Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairer performs unit and direct/general support maintenance on tactical utility, precise power generation, laundry and bath equipment, pumps, engines, burners, filter units, smoke generation and water purification or associated items. The Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairer is primarily responsible for supervising or performing maintenance on chemical equipment, quartermaster machinery, forced air-heaters and special purpose equipment. Some of your duties as a Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairer may include: Maintaining and repairing electrical/fuel heater systems, pumps, decontamination systems, protective filter systems, smoke generator systems and quartermaster and chemical equipment electrical systems Job training for a Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairer consists of nine weeks of Basic Training, where you'll learn basic Soldiering skills, and 11 weeks of Advanced Individual Training, including practice in marine engine maintenance and repair. Part of this time is spent in the classroom and part in the field. You'll learn: Internal combustion engine theory Use and care of hand and power tools Helpful attributes include: An interest in shop mechanics An interest in fixing engines and machinery An ability to use hand and power tools A preference for doing physical work Advanced level Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairers supervise and train other Soldiers within the same discipline. The skills you learn as a Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairer will help prepare you for a civilian career with the marine transportation, commercial fishing, oil exploration or oil drilling industries. You'll be able to consider a future as a marine engine mechanic.

Q:.and what does it entail?

I woulds say easily electric powered engineering, counting on the concentration. by way of some distance the biggest utility of nanotechnology is for semiconductors. I did a level in electric powered engineering specializing in VLSI (in reality microchip layout and fabrication). electric powered engineers in this sub-discipline use widely used and quantum physics to layout small scale structures like circuits, MEMS (micro-electo-mechanical structures), and micro-fluidics contraptions. electric powered engineers greater concentrated in issues like E+M fields and capacity distribution have not something to do with nano. Mechanical engineers won't study quantum physics, it is needed for nano-scale contraptions. no rely what, nano-scale fabrication is bypass-disciplinary requiring electric powered, chemical, fabric, and mechanical engineers as properly as scientists and technicians.

Q:I am currently studying electrical engineering in college but Im considering maybe teaching math for a while. But I wanted to ask what the daily routine is like for an electrical engineer at workThank you

There is no typical day for most engineers and that is a good thing. Yes, some engineers settle for repetitive engineering jobs but you don't have to. There are always jobs with variety and interesting stuff to do.

Q:Hi!Is there an NEC section which addresses the following kitchen design? I'm working with an apartment complex and they've designed each unit's breaker box to be located directly over the stove top burners. Something just sounds real bad here - but, perhaps I worry about things melting when water is brought to a boil or the oven is at 450 F for an hour or so and the vent for the oven is directly through a back burner. [The door for the breaker box just clears the top of the stove top.]Thank you!!

Since you already got another answer that didn't address your question directly. I believe there is a code that says there must be so many inches of clear floor space in front of any electrical service panel. I believe then that your example may violate that code and may not pass inspection if there is one in place for your area.

Q:exactly 5 min later:a- Would it damage the power grid?b-Would sudden surge after 5 min create even a bigger loss in energy than what was saved in that 5 min period??I am not an electrical engineer? I keep hearing that sometimes turning off an energy source for short term does not really save any energy? Is that true?Thanks alot.Could you help me with these 2 points?

Yes, in this extreme case, it may damage (BOE calculation: 2 million x ~500 watts: ~1 billion watt) if they are on single grid. In many of equipment (motorized) start-up losses are significant. So, you may end-up with little saving and a big grid failure. But if you leave aside such extreme situations, it is always good to turn off electrical equipments even for a short gap. And just to add, beware of leaking currents (e.g. not disconnecting appliances from the power plug) which are bigger concern.

Q:Electrical system in a residential building. When we use any equipment on one phase the lights on that phase dim down but and the same time the lights on the second phase become brighter.

The voltage on loaded phase dips on the account of starting current of equipment. This problem is specifically critical in case of motors. So the dimming brightening happens because of unbalance is 3 phases of the installation. This condition is completely normal keeps happening always.

Q:If an electrical equipment is designed for 220V at 60Hz, can it be used in a country which uses an electrical system of 240V at 50Hz. I'm not sure how true is this, but I've heard that the voltage would not be a problem but if the frequency is less, electrical equipments with motors will not be able to run at 100% performance which means the efficiency drops. Please enlighten me~Thank you

YES,it did. 50 hz AC motor becomes less torque while running with 60 hz power,because it has too much reactance (more turns of coil). Whereas 60 hz AC motor is running faster with 50 hz power and its life is shorten,because it has not enough turns of coil.

Q:HiCan someone tell me what the difference is betweena) turning my TV (or whatever) off on the setb) turning it off at the switch on the wallc) unplugging itWhat I'm reading seems to suggest that only unplugging it really means its off - is that true?

When you turn off modern Tvs from the remote, it will go to standby mode, there's still electricity on the circuit enough for the memory to remember your settings, like volume, time, the channel you've last watch before turning it off. When you turn off the switch from the wall or unplugging it, the Tv is now completely disconnected from the power source. You may loose personal settings, and when you plug it back on then it may function in the default settings. Leaving it plugged has advantages but surge, lighting, sudden voltage changes may damage it. So when you'll be out for days then unplug it from the AC outlet to play safe.

Q:Hi I have the chance to have a small premises at a garden center I would be allowed to advertise and was thinking of having a small studio thereI already have 2 home studio lights interfit background support and 3 backdrops I would be aiming to photography babies and childrendoes any one know what health and safety regulations i have to follow, what insurances is neededI already have equipment cover including my computer public liability and public indemnitydoes all equipment like the lights and backdrop have to be secured?do i have to have a credit card payment machine? basically i want to know every thingAndrea

You single then? My wife loves football, well I say 'loves football' but she is a Rangers fan so it's a contradiction in terms. We watch all competitions together though. Get yourself a new wife for The World Cup.

Q:Also how do we know our brain has electrical pulses. How do u prove it

electrical brain pulses are actually neurons firing little messages to one another. the electrical pulses aren't really electricity but more like a heated data wave that gives off a small static charge. these pulses fire at about 250 miles an hour. when you think, type, breathe, a circuit of these charges fire back and forth to each other passing through neuron nets. this is how the receptors gather the information. it's all very complicated. we know that these pulses contain small electric charges because certain equipment can detect small electric charges
